Claude Skills
Masterclass
You've been using Claude like a search engine.
This workshop turns it into a system that runs your real work.
Most Claude users are still prompting. Skilled users build systems. In 90 minutes, you go from writing prompts from scratch every time to having Claude run repeatable work — the same way, every time — across your entire team.
The difference between prompting and building. Why ChatGPT habits limit your Claude output — and how skills break that ceiling. Where skills fit in the Claude ecosystem: Chat, Desktop, Cowork, MCP.
- The Consumer → Practitioner → Builder ladder — and where you currently sit
- Why rewriting prompts is the most expensive invisible cost in your workflow
- What a "skill" actually is — and why it's not a mega-prompt
- Five minutes of honest self-assessment: your current Claude usage mapped against what's possible
We take one repeatable task from your actual work — a weekly report, a client brief, a meeting summary — and turn it into a skill Claude runs the same way every time. Five build methods explained with live demos.
- Bring your own task: participants submit one repeatable workflow the night before
- Live build from blank canvas — Numan builds it in real time
- Five build methods: which to use for which task type
- The two things every skill needs that most people skip
- You test your own skill in the room before the block ends
Skills that connect to Google Sheets, HubSpot, Slack, and your files via MCP and Connectors. Skills that browse websites and pull live information. Multi-step task flows where Claude does Step 1, reads the output, runs Step 2 — without you.
- What MCP is and why it's the biggest unlock most people miss
- Live demo: Claude reads a Sheets CRM, drafts 5 follow-ups, sends them to Slack — all from one skill
- File skills: Claude reads your PDFs, contracts, reports — and acts on what it finds
- Web skills: Claude browses, scrapes, summarises — then formats the output your way
- Where multi-step flows break and how to prevent it
How to tell when a skill is underperforming. The simple A/B eval method. Sharing skills across a team — deploying what you built today to 10 colleagues in under 5 minutes.
- The 3 signals that tell you a skill needs work
- Running your first eval: no tooling needed
- Deploying a skill to your team in under 5 minutes
- What to build next — your 30-day roadmap
Open floor. Bring your "can Claude do this?" question. Numan works through real problems live. Plus: a quick look at the Summer AI Cohort for those who want to go further.
- Live Q&A on anything covered in the workshop
- The Summer AI Cohort (June 15) — what comes next for those going deeper
- Zoom closes at 8:30 PM — sharp
"I've attended a lot of AI workshops. This was the first one where I actually built something during the session and used it the next morning. The live build format makes a massive difference."
"Numan doesn't do slides-and-talk. He opens Claude, starts building, and you watch a real workflow come together. I left with 4 working skills and a framework for building more."
"Worth every rupee. The MCP/connectors section alone changed how I think about AI tooling. We've since automated three weekly reports that used to take my team 6 hours combined."
Numan has deployed Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini into enterprise workflows across Pakistan and the GCC — at organisations including L'Oréal Pakistan, Aga Khan University Hospital, and Al Yousif Group. He has trained 400+ professionals across 7 workshops, and is the author of the Claude.ai Complete Masterclass — Pakistan's most-downloaded AI guide. He teaches Applied AI, not theoretical AI: every session involves building something real.
